Re: Pre-Stockton sand practice
Hello fellow xtrailers
With all that rain today, I would have thought the sand would be firm enough for you not to get bogged.
As it poured down this morning and later in the afternoon, I thought, "I wonder how the boyz are doing over there?" This must be the exact moment you got bogged just kidding.
I take it you didn't go for a swim?
All I can say "I wish I was there with you guys" Damn work!
Looking forward to the pics "as always"

Re: Pre-Stockton sand practice
Hey Rich,
Awesome pics!
I reckon that my side steps would have been stuffed had I been in the same situation (pic #6)
Now that I've seen your pics, I'm worried about my sand/beach driving ability come Stockton day, so I think I need to do a practise run at the same place as well.
Andre (russki) interested? I think Pete also mentioned to me (today) that he’d be prepared to come with us (thank you Pete, I really need all the encouragement I can get)
How about Saturday the 12th of Feb?

Re: Pre-Stockton sand practice
Jalal,
I'm always keen to go sand driving!
Sunday will be better for me though, as I'm still not sure when my course starts.
I recon it will be fun to go in a small group first, to practice sand
driving, spend time on small dunes first, (getting bogged )
I've got snatch strap and air compressor, just need a shovel and radio and I'm fully equipped for an adventure.
What about 5/2,6/2 or 13/2?
Rich,
What air pressure did you have in your tyres?

Re: Pre-Stockton sand practice
Hi Andre,
Can't go on 5/2, as got something to do, not very keen for the 13th either, so this leaves us with 6/2 (which is ok with me at this stage)
Got a spare radio and a shovel.
Pete: Is the 6th OK with you? I don't know the area at all, so we need someone who's been there before.
